☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis second volume of Marvel's Rom Epic Collection continues the Spaceknight's Earthbound adventures, collecting issues from the original 1980s series. As Rom battles the Dire Wraiths, he crosses paths with a host of Marvel heroes including the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, and the Hulk, while the mystery of his lost love Brandy Clark deepens. The collection also introduces key allies and enemies like Hybrid, Starshine, and the Terminator, weaving Rom's sci-fi saga into the broader Marvel Universe.
In "Move Over, Rom—There's a New Hero in Town!", Rom journeys to the lost planet of Galador only to find it vanished—replaced by a desperate battle on Xandar, where Nova and Powerhouse hold the line against a Skrull invasion. With help from the Prime Thoran of Xandar, Rom uncovers the truth behind the Golden Galaxy’s mysterious relocation and earns a return trip home, all while teaming up with cosmic heroes in a story written by Bill Mantlo and Mark Gruenwald, illustrated by Sal Buscema, Joe Sinnott, and Al Milgrom, and colored by Ben Sean. The cover by Al Milgrom captures the moment Rom steps into a new chapter of his journey.

Rom flies to the location of Galador in a borrowed Skrull spaceship only to discover his planet is no longer there. Instead, he finds Nova and Powerhouse who are currently defending the planet of Xandar from a Skrull invasion (and are a little leery of a giant robot in a Skrull ship). Rom returns with Nova and assists in fighting off the Skrulls. In return, the Prime Thoran of Xandar discovers that the entire Golden Galaxy has been moved and transports Rom home to Galador's new stellar coordinates. With the Skrull threat neutralized, Richard Ryder is returned to Earth without his Nova powers.
